Expect it to do quite well - and likely won’t be the end of it

Nintendo the only “traditional” player left

Dunno, this is the only successful MP game that Playstation has so I'm not surprised it is going fully multi-plat. Moreover, Arrowhead are going fully multi-plat themselves for their next game.

This game will do well on Xbox. It will be a signal for bean counters at Sony. Marvel Tokon will likely happen next - and after that it will be floodgates open.

It starts with multiplayer games only, PC only and not day and date, then the release window between console and PC shortens, now it adds another platform - it’s just a never ending sliding scale. We’ve seen the same boiling frog transition with Xbox, even if their situation forced their hand sooner.

People said all this years ok when they first put stuff on PC and yet...

Is it on GP?

…yet is happening now?

I mean, they can afford a slower transition comparatively to Xbox - but the transition is happening. Ultimately, PlayStation is publishing a game on Xbox.

This is probably true

once you start porting games you generally don’t just stop.

Tbf i also don’t think xbox will be around long enough for it to really matter.

Is it on GP?

Don’t believe so, but HellDivers 2 was like $40 at release - so it not being a $60-$80 release should help, even on Xbox.

Plus, I have a feeling that Xbox community will rally behind it as a signal to PlayStation that there’s an audience to be fed there

Expecting Astrobot for Switch 2 announcement in the coming months.

Lmao Sony really can't keep their 3rd party bytches in check huh

 

[gurf]

With it being a GAAS it makes sense, but we'll need to see how the sales look.

FF16 sold like 25000 when released on Xbox.
